You've done the work and the numbers hold. But the conversation still feels like a lottery.
You can prepare the deck and rehearse the answers. What you can't rehearse is the moment one question shifts the energy in the room, and you feel it move away from you.
The ENGAGE Method® programme teaches you why that happens, and how to hold the room when it does.
But for some conversations, you want someone in your corner who has sat on both sides of the table.
Work With Me 1:1I’m Solvej Biddle.
For three decades, I've worked at the highest-stakes end of business, first as a commercial lawyer negotiating multimillion-pound deals, then walking into the BBC's Dragons' Den with a consumer product, triggering a bidding war between all five Dragons, and securing a joint investment deal. I scaled that business across 21 countries and five continents with partners including British Airways, Amazon and Tesco.
These days, I sit on both sides of the investment table as an angel investor, board advisor, and UK Ambassador for Tech Nordic Advocates.
I work with a small number of founders and CEOs one-to-one, in the moments that decide their trajectory.
What my Coaching looks like
Four focused sessions built entirely around your most critical stakeholder challenges:
- Four private one-hour coaching sessions, working through your specific investor, board or partner conversations with someone who has been on both sides of the table
- Direct, honest feedback on how you're showing up in high-stakes rooms, and precisely what to change
- Access to Solvej between sessions for guidance when a critical conversation can't wait
- Thirty years on both sides of the table: commercial law, international scaling, angel investing, and sustained mentoring and advisory work with scaling founders, applied directly to your situation
A small number of private clients at any one time. By application.
There is a conversation in your calendar that matters more than the rest.
Let's make sure you walk in ready for it.
